the aim of this manuscript is to study the implication of aluminium-oxide nanofluid for an amphibious vehicle engine (viable on land and under water) cooling system both analytically and experimentally. to achieve this, a one-dimensional model of the engine cooling system (radiator) is considered through a computational fluid code in which the mass flow rate for a range of the coolant temperatu...

jet impingement heat transfer is an effective and practical approach that is employed in many industrial processes where heating, cooling, or drying is required. details of the heat or mass transfer rate have been investigated both experimentally and numerically and can be found in the published literature. in most of the numerical studies, control-volume approach has been employed to solve the...

an experimental and theoretical energy and exergy analysis was conducted for a cylindrical cavity receiver employed in a parabolic dish collector. based on simultaneous energy and exergy analysis, the receiver average wall temperature and overall heat transfer coefficient were determined. a simplified nusselt number for heat transfer fluid (htf) through the receiver as a function of reynolds an...

in this paper by the introduction of the basic equipment of a solar cooling system, solar hydrogen ammonia refrigeration system as a solar cooling technique will be discussed. using heat collector and absorption refrigeration allows us to use residual heat, for cooling, heating and producing hot water and boiling water .this research focuses on methods of heat transfer from the sun into the gen...

introduction: thermal properties of food during the frying process and mass transfer mechanisms (water and oil) can help in controlling the quality of the fried product (fiszman et al., 2005). during the frying process, heat was transferred from the oil to the sample surface that it increases the temperature almost to 100 °c, the water evaporates and moved out. the sample surface was covered by...

A method to obtain the local heat transfer coefficients of carbon dioxide at supercritical pressures in vertical multi-port mini-channels and in a vertical small tube under cooling conditions was presented through the combination of experiments and numerical simulation in this paper. The CFD code FLUENT 6.1 was used to simulate the convection heat transfer of cooling water to determine the loca...

A heat pump system is constructed tO evaluate the performance and the heat transfer characteristics. Mixtures of R22/Rl42b are adopted in the heat pump. The heat transfer in the evaporator and the overall perfomance arc measured and analyzed in terms of the compositions and the flow rate of the refrigerants. The evaporator consists of counter~currem concentric circular tubes. Possibility of cap...
